Overview of your London tour:

Have you ever wanted to see a real Banksy piece, not in a gallery, but on the streets where he painted it and intended it to be seen? Well, this is the tour for you. We'll see 8 pieces by Banksy in varying states of preservation, from pristine to nearly destroyed. We'll also talk about his identity, news stories, and gossip, as well as what other street artists really think of him! We don't stop at Banksy - we also see some fantastic street art and graffiti from other artists along the way. London's Street Art scene is one of the world's best - let's get out onto the streets of the East End and explore the beautiful, the controversial, the ugly, and the hilarious.

Your London tour itinerary

We'll start at King's Cross Station and cross the street to see an unassuming little stencil by Banksy that most people miss. Next, we'll take the London Underground to Barbican station and see three Banksy pieces in the immediate area, including some of his newest in London. Then, we'll stroll through the financial district and use this time to chat about street art laws, history, and culture. Next, we head into trendy Shoreditch and see a previously hidden Banksy that has been returned to public display. We then see two of the earliest (and best preserved) London pieces by this iconic artist. We'll walk down Brick Lane to finish with some other fantastic local and international street artists, some very famous in their own right! Finally, we'll finish with a Banksy sculpture that has seen better days - right in the heart of Spitalfields.
